Master Bedroom Progress (Part 3)

Since my Master Bedroom Makeover is taking so long, I decided to keep you abreast of my progress. I posted about loving the paint color, see here. Well the paint is all complete now and I still love it. I used Valspar in a Flat Finish. The color is Skyscraper Taupe. I'm showing you this glimpse of the bed area.

The mirror over the bed is antique and had belonged to my parents.

I realize some decorators would nix putting a mirror over the bed area but rules are made to be broken! I am really liking the white bedding, white lampshades, and the touches of brass with the gray paint. Even the gold pillows give a great contrast. I think some people think you should use nickel or chrome with gray, but I beg to differ.Karli has found me what she described as the perfect pillow to put in front of the gold ones. I haven't gotten it yet but can hardly wait to see what she bought me. I'm waiting to see it before picking out fabric to make a bedskirt and recover the chair seat. I also want to purchase new white drapes, but I hate ordering online. I want panels just like Karli found at Ikea, so I'll wait till we take a trip to Denver.Maybe all of the above reasons tell why my Makeover is not finished yet. But, I'm taking my time and enjoying every minute of it.Still decorating,Kandy
